Our room had an amazing view over Lake Burley Griffin and Parliament House. The main room had an ensuite and then we had a large bathroom this was great for 3 adults.

The support was fantastic and the 2 bedroom unit was huge with amazing views. Some road noise at night but all in all it was a great place. Very few places open for dinner nearby but that’s not on the venue. Thank you for our stay.

We were attending a conference in the hotel next door so shared a three bedroom apartment. It was spacious well appointed and clean. Access was very secure and although not aware there was additional cost, I was glad to be able to have my car parked underneath as we had no need for it. The only downsides were that we had to wait 45 mins for our room to be ready and also due to construction work being done next door, there was noise disturbance through the night. Overall a great location and value for money.

Hi Fiona,Thank you so much for taking the time to provide such detailed feedback on your recent stay with us.I am sorry to hear the parking cost was not made clearer to your prior to your stay, but am glad you were able to take advantage of it as it is the cheapest available in the city at just 12.00 per night.For your next visit I would recommend looking at booking our Lakeside rooms as these face away from the city preventing any possible roadwork from bothering you during your visit.I hope we have the opportunity to welcome you back sometime in the near future.

This was a great location and size of the apartment was excellent for our family. There were a few things that could do with updating and cleanliness could be improved.

We paid for a 2 bedroom lake view apartment. We were put on level 1 with no view except oleander trees no view at all of the lake. Ordered room service the first night when it came it was cold and tasted terrible. Very disappointed won’t stay there again

Hi Warrick,Thank you for taking the time to leave a review for your stay with us, we appreciate the feedback. We're sorry to hear we weren't able to get you onto a higher floor for your lakeside room, unfortunately we cannot guarantee that our lakeside rooms will receive a lake view as our lower floors do overlook the treeline before the lake. I have looked into your stay and can see we were fully booked for the stay, but our team always try to ensure we are allocating people onto the higher floors whenever possible.We're also sorry to hear you did not enjoy your room service, this is a service we provide in partnership with our sister hotel just across the road from us, so we will need to look into what happened for your meal.We do hope you can return in future, and have an experience more in line with the standard we hold ourselves to.Kind regards,

The property is old and very dated, which doesn’t bother me, but it was dirty also. I’m sure the cleaner has NEVER set foot on either of the balconies The mug were dirty and very stained from what looks like years of being used and not cleaning Not enough blankets for the cold weather

Apartment needs refurbishment. Veranda and windows full of dust and cobwebs which spoiled the beautiful view.
